Lacunosus, a relatively rare and short-lived cloud formation, takes on the look of a honeycomb pattern of round holes with frayed edges. It is formed when a layer of rising warm air and a layer of cold air come into contact with one another, causing downdrafts that push through the cloud. This classic example was spotted by Alexia's friend, Bob Hunter, near Lexington, Virginia, US.

Congratulations Guilherme
awesome photo,
Dear Guilhereme
at present, there is no “Photo of the Year” – this is just something I have suggested in making my comments on the lovely photos submitted on the Photo Gallery. But, there is a “Cloud of the Month” and I am in full hearty agreement with Bryan’s thoughts about your truly wonderful picture.
I am highly gratified your stunning and memorable photo has been selected as “Cloud of the Month” for March -on the front page of the Society’s website. I would have not expected anything else. I keep looking at your photo and it continually fills me with wonderment.
Well done and warm congratulations!
Laurence
Hi Laurence, thank you. Where can i see the rank with the photos of the year?
Hello Guilherme
The very pleasing comments made on your magnificent photo are more than well deserved. Your photo has given us much pleasure and wonderment. As said by me earlier, your photo already ranks as Cloud of the Year – and it is only February!
Laurence
